Evaluation of iodine and selenium level and thyroid functions in patients with cystic fibrosis
To the best of our knowledge, our study is one of the few in the literature to investigate urinary selenium levels alongside iodine in PwCF. Further research is needed to clarify and interpret elevated urinary selenium levels in this context. It was shown that iodine deficiency and the rate of SH were relatively high in pwCF. However, it was still thought that correcting iodine deficiency in these patients could improve thyroid dysfunction associated with CF.
